Kerrang awards 2007

Still rocking! Take to the basement!

And the nominations are...

Kerrang! editor Paul Brannigan and Fightstar frontman Charlie Simpson have just read out the nominations for this year’s Kerrang! Awards. All eyes turned to the stage as the pair announced the shortlist for nominees. As each of the eight awards were read out, cheers filled the room, as it soon became clear that tonight's headliners Enter Shikari had already done astoundingly in the online voting, nominated for a whopping four awards.


"It's great to be nominated again," said frontman Rou Reynolds. "Thanks to everyone that voted for us! We're still shocked from being nominated last year, really! Hopefully this time we won't have a show, and can actually make the Awards!"

No MCR for best live band...proper shocked!
Seen all the bands in the nominees apart from Muse...who i know are awesome live anyway...but MCR were by far the best live band i've ever seen!
AVA are good live, but they barely even play in this country so how the hell are they up there...have they even played England since after the last K! Awards? Probably once for one of them typical one off London gigs all bands do!
Ah well!
Satified with the rest!
Oh...and what happened to best band on the planet?

MUSE FUCKING OWN

30 SECONDS TO MARS.

+PROVEHITO IN ALTUM+

ANGELS AND AIRWAVES FOR THE WIN.

I've never seen 'em live, but I'd like to see them win some awards just 'cause I'd like to thank Tom and co for being the only band that make me feel like they do. And 'cause the new album is sounding AWESOME so far.

Even so, where the fuck are Megadeth in here? I'm sick of Kerrang! readers total inability to recognise bands that aren't in the "Emo" scene. Honestly, a couple of years ago you'd have thought the only bands in the world were My Chemical Romance and Green Day...

Also, I'm a HUGE Fall Out Boy fan, but Infinity On High does NOT belong in the Best Album category. It's a tad disappointing, to be honest.

-Lexi C

MCR not in the list for best live band?! They're effin' awesome live!
But I wish them the best of luck, and hope they will all their nominations <3

Lmao thats messed up I dont even see a rock band there, wheres Ozzy? Velvet Revolver? The Answer? White Stripes? etc Oh wait I forgot its Kerrang... silly me

Why did 'The Answer' play(rocking set by the way)...and didn't get nominated...???
Please but the ROCK back in Kerrang ...Angus will be turning on his cover!!!

it's aweeesome The Sleeping are nominated, they're so under rated and i voted a billion times..

the blackout for the genius award!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

funny guys!

VOTE FOR 30 SECONDS TO MARS!!!

http://www.thirtysecondstomars.com/

vote 4 mcr!! they are the best band ever! long live the black parade! they should be nominated 4 best live band too!

MUSE = BEST LIVE BAND ON EARTH (and Mars)
= BEST BRITISH BAND!!

VOTE VOTE VOTE FOR MUSE
They definitely deserve it

First of, i'm 19, your all 14. you don't have a clue about anything except my chemical romance and the modern greenday (old greenday were amazing!). you like bands that scream and wear tight pants and you wouldn't know what a decent band was if i slapped you in the face with it. on that note..

1. Best British Newcomer = LostAlone = They are a proper rock band that make amazing music and are amazing live. None of this scene shit and screaming like the rest! They will be huge, and will be around for a long time.

2. Best International Newcomer = 30 Seconds To Mars = Just because i don't like any of the other bands and all of their music video's are epic!

3. Best Live Band = Enter Shikari = I cannot stand the screaming, but if you haven't seen them live your an idiot. Best thing you will ever witness!

4. Best Single = Funeral For A Friend - Into Oblivion = One of the best bands in the world, and this song is fantastic. Not the best funeral for a friend song ever, but it's better than the rest of the choices.

5. Best Album = Biffy Clyro - Puzzles = Again, they aren't scene like rest of the choices you have all left us with (except machine head of course) and lets face it, they deserve it, they have been trying so hard for so long it's about time they we're recognised.

6. Best Video = Paramore - Misery Business = Because Hayley Williams Is FIT!

7. Best British Band = Funeral For A Friend = If you vote anyone else your a fucking dipshit!

8. Best International Band = Machine Head = What horrible fucking choices all you 14 year olds left us with. Machine head are obviously the only band that deserve it!

There we are. Anyone who votes for My Chemical Romance for anything should be shot dead. They are not a good band anymore, And They are not good live (they were, when they were all about death and killing. but now all they care about is hugging and high 5's and their live show is pathetic). THE END.

im a big lostprophets fan..but i have to agree muse do deserve those awards..

NO BRING ME THE HORIZON!!!!!??????

30 seconds to mars ♥♥♥♥
They deserve to win everything they're up for =]]]
unlike mcr people don't vote for mcr
lv
kirkyy
!x!

Why are MCR so overated. Theres so much more to music than emo vocals. The only band who deserve to win is machinehead for their awesome 'The Blackening' which focuses more on instrumentation and less on pussy lyrics. I do like enter shakari and ffaf before their new album but no one else has come close to accamplishing what machinehead have done.

Ok, so heres how it should and WILL go down:

Best live band: Lostprophets
Best british band: Lostprophets
Best video: Paramore-misery business
Best album: Biffy Clyro-puzzle

Don't care about the other stuff.
Lostprophets = AWESOME!
So get voting.

Btw MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE SUCK!! All you people are fickle get a grip!

My Chemical Romance, 30 Seconds To Mars, Enter Shikari, Muse.... oh dear.

when's ALTERNATIVE music gonna come back on the kerrang priorities?

MCR have gotta win in all they deserve it a very successful year they have and the black parade rules best single best album and best international for sure!!! GO GEE!!! Luv ya good luck guys x

OMG :o MCR are not in best live band its a shocker!!!!! Any way go mcr go!!!!

hellogoodbyeeee come on.
less of the mcr.

30 seconds to mars é a melhor banda do mundo,Jared Leto é 1 gênio da fonografia.
30seconds to mars forever and ever.

Gallows for best newcomer for sheer bollocks that no one else has!!!

Enter Shikari should wipe the board for imagination!!!

Lost Prophets are not a real band please go away!

Muhhhhaaaaaaa!

Where is the Trivium? Just...where is the Trivium?
They should've at least been up there for Best Live Act after their awesome tour in April, and if not them, MCR!
As it stands, I hope Funeral win something, and that MCR get Best International. Enter Shikari for Best Live Act, I suppose...

30 Seconds to Mars - "The Kill" is the best video ever. Why is "The Kill" not included? They are also the best live band, as no one can sing live as well as Jared Leto does! They deserve all awards for their talent, beauty and dedication.

Best International Band sould be won by Panic! At The Disco. There a great band love them to bits, There music is the shizzle. OMG come on FOB and MCR you can win =P MCR not up for best band live OMG big shock they rock live i've seen them 4 times ( : very happy

30 seconds to mars rule!!!!! my favourate band. any 1 agree?

LOSTPROPHETS!
GET IN.
GO FOR IT LADS!!

Uh...but whats with the hellogoodbye nominations?
Pure Bollocks.

Too much MCR and FOB, dont mind em but there a bit boring now...

Why isnt there more LINKIN PARK!!!

and as much as I thought of Blink 182..Tom, you have well and truely fucked up with angels and airwaves im sorry to say.

Anyone agree or have and opinions?!
Fucking hit back!


okay i have to say this i respect everyone elses point of view and everything and i agree that kerrang is not as rock as they used to be but would you please lighten up on my chemical romance!!!i have been a fan from the beginning and yes they did go more mainstream and scene but they still rock more than any other band!!!they are not the best band ever but they are one of the best bands around at the moment!they deserve every nomination they got and should have got best live band too!i love 30 seconds to mars too but i love my chemical romance even more and think they should win!
glad madina lake have a nomination as they are amaazing and i hope they do well cos they deserve it!
and not all of mcr's fans are stupid 14 year old fangirls so back off!!!

ok all i can see when i look at this is what any 11-14 year old would like. yes mcr are a good band and they've done well, but if they get best international i may break the tv. machine head or the used, at a push. otherwise ill definatly know that the whole of these awards are now controlled by kids who barely know anything about rock.

will the awards how be on tv?
someone tell me =]

I am 14, and I find that rather insulting. Just because I am this age does not mean I am and my chemical romance-and-new-green day-loving idiot. I, personally, think that Green Day were SO much better before American Idiot. I think most of the choices up there are horrible too. I listen to Nirvana, Iron Maiden and Metallica.
So yeah obviously I only listen to "bands that scream and wear tight pants".

Don't use your age as a way of saying you're beter than other people. Don't make a judgement on someone just based on thier age. Think before you say something like that, because you're not right, and you're just offending people.

yay...30 seconds to mars rock.. so excited.. go the echelon

i would just like to say tht the nominees this year arr shit

come on

all the popular bands tht everyone is 'inlove with'

well i would just like to ask where the hell the bands arr tht deserve these awards

My chemical romance don't deserve to win anything. Anyone who votes for them deserves to be shot. Sure old my chem stuff was good, like their first album, but if you think the new stuff is good you need to listen to some real good music

Suzie who are you to tell me what is the good music.I think that The Black Parade is awesome and the rest of their albums,too.So.....go and fuck yourself and then shot your dog...Hahahaha

"i <3 gerard he's so gawwwjusss"

shutup no one cares
do you not think we have heard all that before!

its the music not looks you silly little girly fan

i like the band but please give it a rest

I think people who are complaining that MCR aren't up for Best Live Band are just really stupid. They are nominated for FOUR OTHER AWARDS. Isn't that enough?
Besides, with all the teenies who are in love with Gerard fucking Way and Frank fucking Iero, they are most likely going to win most, if not all, of the awards thy are up for.
Don't get me wrong, MCR are a good band, I have nothing against them, but people just vote for them for all of the wrong reasons.
I also think it's stupid for people to be having arguments on here about whether they are the "best band ever" or whatever and not mention the music... like "MCR should win! Gerard is the most sexy guy ever! Yay for My Chemical Romance!!"
No one really cares.

Right.
Rant Over.

i just started to listen to this band because of the music, i too don't understand why everybody are just listening to them because they are so sexy or any of that bullshit, people should just listen to them because the are good musicians and great song writers.

the shittest line up ever apart from machine head if i'm honest! for one thing the best album this year is megadeths so why arent they here :S

yeah, very "strange" nominees ...(you can see who's got an enthusiastic fanbase)

OK, hope that MCR won't get all awards, that would be very unfair cause they aren't def. "best band" or st else.

I'd vote for 30 Seconds to Mars, they are they're a good band - and the best alternative to choose. Good Luck !

best video- hellogoodbye by far love them they should be best newcoming band too, muse great band too they should so win best british band and live act and dont judge and say oh its cos ur 14 or w.e everyone has there on opinion so god stop judging us on age and respect different taste in music.

wotchin k! nominees on the hits an ma wee bro is slagin off FOB lolz

MCR all the way

gd luk tae them all!
